[V8] car shopping, BE REAL

[Coleman, David]

The aerostars were great -- more truck than minivan. Get snows unless it's a 4x4 version. My 92 had a hard time in slop. The 97s were the last and the best!

ok, now you're just trying to be sensible Dave!  I can tell you Kent, that Aerostar will hold all your samples on racks!  I just got a very low mileage '97 (last year made) EXT model and it looks like it will swallow your Miata.  Mileage ain't great, it's a big vehicle, but it's got tons of room and features and you can get nice low mileage ones cheaply at the GSA auctions now.  But I'm not so sure how it will be in the snow... it sucks in the rain with the tires on it now.  Ask me again when the new ones are on it...
